My partner and I are using Microsoft To Do to share multiple lists, like a shopping list and ideas for vacations, presents for the kids etc. We already moved from Google to mailbox.org for e-mail and family calendars, but shared tasks somehow can’t be synced to other apps. Do you have any recommendations for good apps where people can share lists, that also have a browser UI (so they can be used on a PC without installation)?
Joplin is an open source todo app that is also on the fediverse: @joplinapp@mastodon.social
You are able to work with others and have possiblity to pay for their server or sync it otherwise. The dev comes from London acording to his github account.
Joplin is more of a “notes” app. But yes, you can do todo’s in it quite fine.
That’s true it’s more powerfull dann just lists, but that isn’t something bad right. Just do list if you want lists or do more if you want more.
FWIW, Joplin has plug ins that let you use other services for sync. I use One Drive, but I think like, Box, Dropbox etc work. It can be set to encrypt everything before uploading.
almost everything works that is using webdav and it has end-2-end encryption
I was hoping I could use Joplin with WebDAV from mailbox.org Drive, but that doesn’t seem to work for shared folders. It’s frustrating to have to pay so much for the server hosting, but I’m considering it.
I have mailbox as well and I used to be quite heavily involved in Joplin (on the community management and moderation side of things), what exactly is it you were trying to do that doesn’t work? I’d be interested to see, I personally still use a self hosted thing on a raspberry pi but as I pay for mailbox I can’t say it wouldn’t use useful to maybe swap to that.
I’m struggling with a stupid edge case. I can integrate the mailbox drive using WebDAV for Joplin as you would expect, but I can’t find the right URL (if there is any) to link directly to the shared folder my partner and I have. I tried to avoid that problem by using DAVx5 to mount the mailbox drive directly on my phone (works perfectly, has access also to the shared folders), but if I link that to Joplin via the “file system” option, Joplin is thrown because apparently the file names are not just the name of the file, as expected, but include the path to the mount as well.
Oh weird, yeah its not going to be happy having weird names inside its own sync target folder…
You could use any cloud service with free option like pcloud(eu version) and enable encryption. For me it worked on my email service
